The incident was recorded on the Hungarton Boulevard in Leicester but could be anywhere in Gloucestershire too.

The owner of the dash cam footage said to Leicestershire Live : "I had allowed the red vehicle merge in turn and I'm fed up of those who are of the belief that they are somehow entitled to push their way in just for the sake of being one car ahead when there was ample space behind me for the driver to merge.

"Granted, I could have been submissive and just let this person force their way ahead.

"These merge points in Leicester are nothing short of dangerous, and sometimes appear pointless apart from to cause aggression and allow drivers the opportunity to jump one or two cars ahead regardless of consequence."

The Highway Code is not specific about this particular situation however does state the following under Lane Discipline, section 134: "You should follow the signs and road markings and get into the lane as directed.

"In congested road conditions do not change lanes unnecessarily.

"Merging in turn is recommended but only if safe and appropriate when vehicles are travelling at a very low speed."
